The Beechcraft Denali is a next-generation single-engine turboprop planned for Puerto Rico trips from San Juan (SJU) and Isla Grande (SIG), seating 6 to 9 with a targeted 1,600 nautical miles of range. It is intended for inter-island and Florida legs, including Vieques (VQS, 4,301 feet), with modern systems. A clean-sheet Textron single now in flight testing.
Textron Aviation is developing the Denali as a new single-engine turboprop with a large cabin and current avionics, targeting a cruise near 285 knots. Entry to service is still ahead, so availability should be confirmed with us before planning.

Why the Beechcraft Denali Fits Puerto Rico
Intended for Puerto Rico clients who want a modern single-engine turboprop on island and short-haul legs, the Denali would serve San Juan or Isla Grande out to Vieques, Culebra, or south Florida. Because it is not yet in service, we confirm status and propose a flying equivalent such as the PC-12 or a King Air.
Where a client asks about the Denali specifically, we match the mission to an available turboprop out of SJU and SIG.
